Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from the root שׁאר (sh'ar), which means "to remain" or "to be left over."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Greek Number 3062 (λοιπός, loipos): meaning "remaining" or "the rest."
• Strong's Greek Number 2640 (κατάλειμμα, kataleimma): meaning "a remnant" or "that which is left."

These Greek terms similarly convey the idea of what is left over or remains, often used in the New Testament to describe the faithful remnant of Israel or the believers who endure through trials.

Usage: The term שְׁאָר is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament to denote what is left over or remains after a part has been removed or used. It often refers to a remnant of people or things.

Context: The Aramaic word שְׁאָר (she'ar) appears in the context of the exilic and post-exilic periods, particularly in the books of Daniel and Ezra, where Aramaic is used alongside Hebrew. This term is significant in the theological concept of the "remnant," which is a recurring theme throughout the Bible. The remnant often refers to a group of people who survive judgment or calamity and are preserved by God for a future purpose. In the book of Daniel, for example, the concept of a remnant is tied to the faithful who remain true to God despite persecution or exile. The idea of a remnant underscores God's faithfulness and the hope of restoration and continuity of His promises.
